Lyrics for Song: Moths
Lyrics for Album: Heavy Horses [1978]
The leaded window opened
To move the dancing candle flame
And the first moths of summer
Suicidal came,
Oohh - oohh suicidal came
And a new breeze chattered
In its May-bud tenderness
Sending water-lielies sailing
As she turned to get undressed
And the long night awakended
And we soared on powdered wings
Circling our tomorrows
In the wary month of spring - chasing shadow slipping
In a magic lantern slide - creatures of the candle on a night-light ride.
Dipping and weaving - flutter through the golden needle's eye
In our haystack madness, butterly-stroking on a Spring-tide high.
Life's too long (as the Lemming said )
As the candle burned and the moths were wed.
And we'll all burn together as the wick grows higher
Before the candle's dead.
The leaded window opened
To move the dancing candle flame.
And the first moths of summer
Suicidal came, oohh - oohh suicidal came
To join in the worship of the light that never dies
In a moments reflection of two moths spinning in her eyes.
